Chapter 84 It’s Over
Yu Chucheng had not originally intended to tell anyone about his plan to study hard, but Ji Zhou was a loud speaker. After meeting Yu Chucheng at the elevator door for two consecutive mornings, he couldn't help but spread the news in the WeChat group.
Yu Chucheng was leaning on the table, memorizing words with great resentment, when Ji Zhou suddenly tagged everyone in the group.
Ji Zhou: [Let me ask you, what is the least likely thing to happen in this world? ]
Xu Mengshu: [Walking and being struck by lightning? ]
Ji Zhou: [Wrong, it is Yu Chucheng who should study hard.]
Before Yu Chucheng could kick open the door opposite.
Ji Zhou: [But recently such a low probability event happened. I actually saw Yu Chucheng carrying a bag to school for two consecutive days, and he also brought a lot of books. The bag was so heavy that I could hardly carry it.]
System prompt: Yu Chucheng exited the group chat.
Within two seconds, the system prompted again: Ji Zhou invited Yu Chucheng to join the group chat.
Yu Chucheng directly pressed the voice button, "What the hell are you going to do——"
Duan Huaijin: [You want to learn? ]
Yu Chucheng sat up straight.
Ji Zhou understood Yu Chucheng's character. He just wanted to tease Yu Chucheng in the group. The other party would definitely be like a firecracker and be easily ignited. Poor Duan Huaijin was about to fall into the trap.
Ji Zhou was just about to watch the fun and was about to click on the voice message that popped up from Yu Chucheng, but the voice message was withdrawn at the speed of light.
Yu Chucheng: [Yes.]
Duan Huaijin: [If you don’t know how to do it, you can ask me. ]
Yu Chucheng: [Okay.]
Ji Zhou put a question mark.
That's it? That's all? Why didn't Yu Chucheng curse this time?
Yu Chucheng put down his phone, looked at the book "2000 Words Primary School Students Must Memorize" in front of him and wiped his face.
How could he have the nerve to ask Duan Huaijin such stupid questions? Isn't that just like shooting a mosquito with a cannon?
Yu Chucheng sighed softly and continued to flip through these most basic teaching aids.

On Friday night, Yu Chucheng dressed up specially.
After hearing from Xin Yihan that Chen Cheng liked red wine, Yu Chucheng went back specially to bring over a bottle of Portuguese red wine from his father's collection.
Although he is not good at it, he often sees others treating his brother in a way that pleases him, some wanting to please him, and some wanting to keep him in good stead.
Just as Xin Yihan said, Chen Cheng looked very kind and was very polite to Yu Chucheng. He even took Yu Chucheng's taste into consideration when ordering dishes.
As the organizer of the party, Xin Yihan kept chatting with Chen Cheng's son to ensure that the atmosphere was not dull.
After having a good meal and a few drinks, Chen Cheng stood up and pointed to the terrace outside, "I'm going to have a cigarette."
Fortunately, Yu Chucheng had inquired about Chen Cheng's preferences and habits before coming. He also took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and said, "I'll go too."
Each private room has a small terrace. In front of the Kyoto Bay Hotel is Kyoto’s most prosperous Jinxiu Street. At night, when the street lights are on, the traffic below is connected into lines.
Yu Chucheng lit up the cigarette unskillfully and put it in his mouth without inhaling. "Can I call you Uncle Chen like Xin Yihan does?"
Chen Cheng was originally smoking and looking at his phone. Hearing this, he shook off the ash from his cigarette and looked up, "Of course."
Chen Cheng looked at Yu Chucheng twice and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that time passed too quickly. The things that happened to him when he was as old as Yu Chucheng were still vivid in his mind.
"Uncle Chen, I heard that Guangcheng Pharmaceutical has recently developed a new barrier agent that will be launched on the market soon. I don't know when our family will have the opportunity to cooperate with you." Yu Chucheng narrowed his eyes and showed an innocent smile.
Chen Cheng was amused. "Mr. Yu, you are joking. As the saying goes, different trades are like different mountains. I am just a medicine seller. I don't think I will have the chance to ride on your big ship, the Yu family."
"Not necessarily." Yu Chucheng looked at the lighthouse in the distance and asked casually, "I heard that you have cooperated with the Zhang family before. I remember that the Zhang family did not have any pharmaceutical business."
Chen Cheng was speechless for a moment.
Yu Chucheng glanced at Chen Cheng and saw that the smile on his face gradually faded. He took two deep puffs of the cigarette in his hand.
After a long time, Chen Cheng slowly spoke, "That happened many years ago. I just wanted to repay Mr. Zhang for his kindness to me. But in the end, it didn't work. I won't talk about the past anymore."
Oh... No wonder Chen Cheng, who came from a grassroots background, could gain a foothold in Kyoto. It turns out that he had the support of the Zhang family behind him.
Yu Chucheng racked his brains to ask something else, but he didn't dare to ask rashly, otherwise it would be too obvious.
Just when he was at a loss and the cigarette butt in his hand was about to burn out, Chen Cheng suddenly changed the subject, "Did Master Yu meet Madam Zhang when he went to Chenxi Villa to play?"
Yu Chucheng frowned.
Zhang Wan?
"Yes, Mrs. Zhang even took us on a tour. She was very beautiful and left a very deep impression on us."
Chen Cheng nodded. Although he tried his best to hide it, he couldn't hide the admiration in his eyes. "She is indeed a perfect person."
Perhaps he felt that it was inappropriate to do this in front of the younger generation, so he wiped his face with his hand and explained, "She and I were college classmates before, and she always supported me and recommended me to her father, so I am very grateful to her."
Yu Chucheng almost misunderstood that Chen Cheng and Zhang Wan were having some kind of tragic love affair.
Yu Chucheng pondered for a moment and put out the cigarette butt on the railing. "Since you have such a good relationship with Mrs. Zhang, why haven't you been in contact with the Zhang family in recent years? Is it because of Zhang Guangzhi?"
Chen Cheng sighed, "Master Yu seems to be very interested in the relationship between me and the Zhang family, but what I want to tell Master Yu is that some things should be left in the past. Anyway, everyone is living a good life now, so why do we have to dig up those unpleasant things in the past?"
Is life good?
Yu Chucheng would probably have thought so too if he hadn't accidentally caught Zhang Wan and Zhang Guangzhi arguing behind their backs.
"Uncle Chen, if you think that what's on your mind will affect the peaceful and beautiful life of everyone now, I'm afraid you're wrong." Under the light of the street lamp, Yu Chucheng's eyes were bright, "Because Zhang Wan, who you've always been grateful to, is not living a good life. If you don't believe what I say, you can check it yourself."
Chen Cheng suddenly turned his head and said, "How is that possible?"
Everyone knows that Zhang Guangzhi and Zhang Wan respect each other. No matter what occasion they attend, Zhang Wan will hold Zhang Guangzhi's arm and greet people with a smile.
Yu Chucheng knew that he had found a breakthrough, but it was obviously impossible to make Chen Cheng believe him immediately.
He smiled at Chen Cheng, took out the contact information he had prepared in his pocket and handed it to Chen Cheng. "I asked you about the past in order to find out what happened to Zhang Wan over the years. If you are willing to tell me, you can call me later."
Returning to his seat, Xin Yihan asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "What did you say? Why did it seem like Uncle Chen didn't look very happy after returning? Did you get the answer to your question?"
Yu Chucheng raised his glass and clinked it with his, then whispered, "Not yet, but I think it will be soon."
It doesn’t matter even if Chen Cheng doesn’t tell him. Chen Cheng’s reaction tonight has proved that the problem between him and the Zhang family lies with Zhang Guangzhi. It must be Zhang Guangzhi who did something that caused Chen Cheng to break up with him.
At most, you can spend a little more money and time, and dig down along the vine of Zhang Guangzhi. As long as you do it, there will be traces left.
The meal didn't end until almost nine o'clock. A group of people just took the elevator down to the first floor, and as soon as the door opened, a security guard rushed over.
"I'm very sorry, an Alpha in the lobby on the first floor has unexpectedly entered a susceptible period. He is now very aggressive. We are currently trying to control him. Please leave through the side door as soon as possible."
The whole hall was filled with a sour and bitter smell. Yu Chucheng was choked and covered his nose. He followed the security guard's instructions and left through the side door of the hotel.
"Hiss..." Yu Chucheng moved his neck uncomfortably. Even though he had sprayed a large amount of barrier agents before coming here today, the concentration of Alph pheromones in the susceptible period was too high. Just after a walk from the first floor, his whole body was covered with strange pheromones.
It would be great if Duan Huaijin was here right now. Duan Huaijin’s scent is the best.
Yu Chucheng tapped his phone twice, only to find that it was out of battery and turned off.
"Young Master, are we going to Fengshan or back to the apartment?" asked the driver of the Yu family.
Tomorrow is Saturday. Kyoto Bay is closer to Fengshan Villa and it only takes 20 minutes to get there. When Yu Chucheng returns, there will be a bunch of people waiting for him.
But Yu Chucheng had only plugged in his phone and charged it for two minutes when dozens of missed calls popped up on the screen.
Yu Chucheng looked carefully and found that it was all Duan Huaijin who beat him.
Duan Huaijin also sent him a message on WeChat.
Duan Huaijin: [Yu Chucheng, why is your phone turned off? What happened? ]
“…”
Crack! Yu Chucheng heard the sound of himself breaking into pieces.
He had previously told Duan Huaijin that he was going out to dinner with others tonight, but he didn't say what time the dinner would end.
For some reason, he felt like he was doomed.
The driver called out in confusion, "Young Master?"
Yu Chucheng swallowed and said, "Let's go back to the apartment."
